Love the timeline. But kind of a sad/bitter NB interview I thought. And hello to sexy AH.
Just saw that Whedonesque has a link to video interviews from Chaos Bleeds (the video game). Great Joss interview as always. JM is just...he always makes me feel incredibly awkward when I see him in interviews, and does here as well. ASH is great. He mentions getting squicked by Giles pairings in fanfic. Hee hee. (And he does an American accent for about 2 seconds - which for some reason, I found incredibly cool.) I think there might be one more but I haven't watched it yet.

I completely agree with this. It's too bad. Season 6 fell apart in the middle, but they did all right saving it. Season 7 started out great. I remember being excited, but by the end, even though I was sad the series was over, I was also glad no more damage could be done to it. I did like Chosen, though.
While Season 7 is far from my favorite, I didn't feel that it did any damage to BtVS. There were at least a half-dozen episodes I consider Top Buffy (Beneath You, CWDP, Selfless, Storyteller, LMPTM, Chosen) and quite a few more I thought solid average Buffy (meaning better than just about anything else on tv): Lessons, STSP, Help, Him,Sleeper,Potential,TKIM,DG,Touched, EoD.

Quite honestly, this goes for every single Buffy, Angel or Firefly episode ever made. Yes, even that one.

I suspect I would rather watch late-run Friends than ever have to watch Dad or As You Were again.
I dunno. I've never seen anything Jossverse to rival the watch from the hall agony of Psycho!Stalker!Ross. And I hated As You Were with the best of them.
I'd watch that show with Urkel again over AYW.
Which one is As You Were?
I think it's a matter of personal investment. Back in its first couple of seasons I was pretty rabid about Friends (before
Buffy
showed me the
true
meaning of obsessive fandom), but by the time it got really bad my love for it was but a distant memory and changing the channel came easy.
With Angel (and Seasons 5 & 7 of
Buffy
before it) I'm still in the "Baby, how can you do this to me?" phase of the relationship.
